DESCRIPTION: By using earth and brown tones, a warm and relaxing atmosphere is achieved at the modern-looking Mark Christopher Salon. The objective was to have the client notice the nod to modern design but still feel welcomed and comfortable at the same time. The shampoo area features an added water feature and reduced light so that clients have a spa like experience. The custom built color bar feature stainless steel countertops and is exposed to inquisitive clients.
"We love the way the salon design feels. Mark was influenced by Vidal Sassoon and the 60's mod era. We wanted clean lines and a modern feel, however we weren't willing to sacrifice the comfortable feeling of the overall salon. We want our clients to feel like they can sit back relax and enjoy their visit."- Christopher Murray
